Hi friends and family!
The moment we have been waiting for so long has arrived…we have a family that has selected us as a part of their adoption plan. What we thought we wanted wasn't what God had in store for us rather than a newborn, our family will be welcoming a 3.5 year, precious little girl. This has happened so fast and after 2+ years of waiting for it is happening! This will be an accelerated process, and as a result, all funds are due NEXT WEEK when we travel to Georgia to meet with mom and little girl. We have met every milestone thus far, and have enough in reserve because of your amazing support of our family, to cover the last leg of the process and provide much-needed support to the birth mother.
Now…this is where we need to rely on faith. In addition to the final payment, we also need to pay the attorney fees in full, NEXT WEEK. We are all in and know that God is going to show up and show out big time.
We need to raise $9000 by Septemeber 6 to cover the attorney's costs and bring our beautiful little girl home. We have been loved on and cared for throughout this entire journey by our friends and family, and we are so thankful. This was completely unexpected to us, but part of His plan. We are asking you to prayerfully consider contributing to these legal costs and hope that God can use those who are able to help us make this happen.
All our love,
Josh, Courtney, Ryleigh, Carter, and Grayson Smith
